Persistent maps used by autonomous robots increasingly fuse a geometric perception stack whose assertions are well-characterized with a foundation-model channel that produces semantic claims without calibrated reliability about the same scene. Contemporary mapping systems integrate the two channels by treating the foundation-model channel as an additional voter into a per-element posterior, uncalibrated for its own per-class reliability and without machinery to flag when the two channels contradict each other at a given moment. We propose an update operator with two cooperating mechanisms: a per-class calibrated commit gate, and a per-event conflict-drop window that refuses to commit foundation-model claims contradicted by the geometric channel at the moment of the claim. We evaluate on KITTI-360 and ScanNet, with an oracle geometric channel (panoptic ground truth) and an off-the-shelf online semantic segmenter (Mask2Former) to demonstrate real-world performance. The operator produces substantially more accurate committed maps (KITTI is car commit precision 99.7% vs. 43.9% for the calibration-only operator; mean per-class IoU 0.522 vs. 0.180), retains more compositional true positives at higher precision than a monolithic compositional VLM prompt. The framework operates at deployment quality across both oracle and off-the-shelf-segmenter geometric channels, and is invariant under foundation-model substitution.
